Technics J201 Wiring

Just got a Technics J201 car cassette at a used stuff shop and need to know the wiring configuration of the harness connector at the back so I can soder wires to it rather then buy a harness. I could be being really cheap and may just go buy the connector, but want to do this as inexpensivly as possibly. The head unit cost $4 and may not even work.

The wires for the two harnesses should be color coordinated or at least closely colored. The harness should have come with either a guide that says what is what or the wires themselves have little flags saying what they are. You can use this to match it up with CD Players wires by using the manual from the CD player to know which wire is what.

You Really only Have * RED....POWER + 12 VOLTS USE VOLT METER OR 12 VOLT TEST SHOULD ONLY HAVE POWER WHEN THE KEY IS TURNED ON.

* YELLOW......ALWAYS HAS +12 VOLTS*BLACK........GROUNDS* THE SPEAKER WIRES WILL WILL HAVE 2 WIRES OF THE SAME COLOR (EXAMPLE) GREEN AND THE OTHER WILL BE GREEN WITH BLACK LINE ON IT .YOU WILL HAVE 4 SETS OF THESE .IF THIS IS TO MUCH FOR YOU.. PICK UP THE REPAIR BOOK FOR THAT CAR IT WILL HAVE THE CONN.PIN OUTS. GOOD LUCK.

Solid black is always ground on aftermarket head units. Red is usually the ignition wire, ie when you turn your car on, your stereo turns on. Hot or positive is usually yellow and usually the biggest wire

Hello! Since I do not know if your vehicle is equipped with the Standard or Premium System I'll give both sets of wiring...You can identify which system you have by looking at the color of the ground wire...

There are wiring kits you can buy that have the proper connectors on both ends of the wire harness so it will match up with the radio and the car's wiring harness. No cutting or splicing involved. Just push the connector into the radio and the car's original radio plug connector.

A wiring harness for the unit is most likely more than you would pay for a used unit at a pawn shop. Most sony receivers have the terminals labeled on the circuit board. If you are lucky, you can find a dead one at a stereo shop or repair shop near you. They didn't name them explode for nothing. Be careful.

If you are referring to installation and have the aftermarket wiring harness, The wires should be color coded. RED, YELLOW, & BLACK are power, ignition and ground. These should correspond to matching wires on the back of the head unit (CD player). Match the colored wires from the back of the unit to the same colored wires on the aftermarket harness and then connect them using wire connectors/wire nuts. Once you have them into the correct order the aftermarket harness should connect into the harness in your vehicle. I hope this answers your question =)

I would suggest calling or find online Crutchfield. They have been car stereo experts for many years. They sell harnesses for just about any car allowing you to plug in your stereo directly to the existing harness. I guarantee they will know!

Hello claude_bouth,You need a vehicle specific aftermarket connector generally called a "wiring harness". Your JVC came with a plug that fits the back of the receiver with "pigtail" wires which you splice to the harness wires. http://www.SonicElectronix.com sells the Metra 70-7301 which appears to be the correct harness for your Elantra.You can tap into the wiring of the car harness and splice the wires by function into the appropriate car wires, but using the aftermarket vehicle specific wiring harness is a lot easier and you don't need to disturb the vehicle wiring in any way, just plug into it. It also makes it possible to re-install the factory radio if you ever need to do so. If you choose to tap and splice, you can find your Elantra's wiring color code at http://www.modifiedlife.com.Hope this helps.
